Bought a Luger

Chip · 07-01-2001, 04:54 PM

I have recently bought a Luger from an estate sale.Of all the Lugers I have owned in the past, this one has a couple of features I haven't run across before. This is a DWM double date 1918/1920. All matching serial numbers, except the mag, which is an after market one. The interesting features are; it has the sear safety on it and has the .225 inch hole milled above the rear of the trigger guard for the magazine safety. The overall finish of the gun is about 85 to 90 percent with a few scuff marks and slight muzzel wear. Strawing is probably about 40 to 50 percent depending on which piece you look at. Serial number is 7853k. By the way the magazine safety parts are all missing. Anyone have a guess what this Luger might be worth? Oh, and it has police marking on the front grip strap bottom,SB2137. Anyone know which police outfit this is? Thanks. Chip.
